Taylor Swift Is Named Apple Music’s Artist Of The Year For 2023

Apple Music has named Taylor Swift as its Artist Of The Year for 2023. She’s now the most-streamed female artist in Apple Music history, and the female artist with the most songs to reach Apple Music’s Global Daily Top 100. “I am so honored to be Apple Music’s Artist of the Year,” Swift said in a statement. “Thank you to every single one of you for making this year the most incredible, joyful, celebratory year ever. From streaming the music nonstop to screaming it together in real life at the shows, dancing chaotically in movie theaters, none of this would have been possible without you. Thank you so much.” Swift is a first-time winner of the award, which is now in its fifth year. Billie Eilish was the inaugural winner in 2019, followed by Lil Baby (2020), The Weeknd (2021) and Bad Bunny (2022).
